Investing in Cybersecurity

Security is becoming increasingly complex, bringing about opportunities for technology vendors to help security teams better identify, protect, detect, and respond to threats.

CYBERSECURITY DRIVERS

Why We’re Getting Involved

As the sophistication of attacks grows while the security talent shortage continues, we believe technology and tech-enabled services will need to play a crucial role in securing organizations. We want to leverage our team’s experience helping scale market-leading security businesses to assist founders and management teams expand market share and fulfill their mission of protecting organizations from adversaries.

What We Believe

As the attack surface area grows, so do the avenues for adversaries to penetrate an organization. Technologies that can help proactively protect, intelligently detect, and automatically respond to threats and vulnerabilities will be positioned for strong growth and value creation. We believe Volition can serve as a strong value-add partner as management teams navigate their next phase of growth.

OUR FOCUS

Below are some areas of focus, but we are open to meeting founders tackling all aspects of cybersecurity.

OUR EXPERTISE

Volition brings a unique perspective to cybersecurity companies given our experience. We are excited to take our expertise and partner with the next emerging leader in cybersecurity.
